The other important protective equipment is the smoker which produces puffs of smoke to sedate the bees while checking the hive.
The magnifying lens is a very useful tool as it gives the observer a chance to look closely to the wings of the insect and discover any possibility for parasites carried on the wings of the bee.
Be careful when using the lens in direct sunlight as it may harm eggs.
Each hive should have a log book so you write down all the findings and details related to that specific hive.
